To Balance, Or Not To Balance? Toolholders, That Is
It’s time for machine tool builders and machining companies to shelf the long-standing ISO 1940-1 standard in favor of ISO 16084:2017. Not only is balancing tools rarely necessary, it can also be risky.
Clamp Virtually Any Workpiece Geometry
SMW Autoblok’s versatile four-in-one Centco4 2+2 self-centering and compensating chuck minimizes downtime by reducing changeouts and minimizes waste by reducing part deformation.
Quick-Change Compensating Collet Chuck
Featuring a compact outer diameter and shorter than conventional compensating chucks, MicroCentric’s chuck has a collet with a floating seat that enables the holder to compensate up to 0.060-inch (1.5 mm).
Two-Collet Chuck Doubles Turret Station Capability
EXSYS expands the Eppinger Preci-Flex modular tooling system with a chuck that doubles the machining capability of Mazak’s Quick Turn turning centers. For instance, a tap-and-drill or spot-and-drill combination is easy to set up.
Slim Line Chucks Enhance 5-Axis Milling Versatility
Emuge addresses the increasing complexity of workpieces with a line of FPC Slim Line mill/drill chucks that provide easier access, especially in confined areas and for challenging angles, to maximize machining productivity.
As Machine Technology Advances, The Chuck Must Follow
Just as the right workholding can improve your bottom line, inappropriate workholding can eat into profits. Make sure the chuck that came with your lathe isn’t keeping the machine from delivering the throughput and increased capacity it’s capable of.
Power Chuck Saves Spindle Wear and Tear
SMW Autoblok’s HFKs-2g high-precision power chuck delivers twice the grip force than standard 3-jaw chucks. Use it for high volume lathe and mill turn center applications including heavy-duty precision machining of easily deformed workpieces.
Versatile Collet Chuck System Outperforms Conventional Jaw Chucks
Speedgrip Chuck Company’s standard external collet chuck system combines the benefits of high-precision workholding with in-stock availability to increase precision and productivity.
Collet Chucks Provide Flexibility Without Compromising Runout Accuracy
Available in a wide variety of toolholder lengths and diameters for optimal rigidity and clearance, Samchully Workholding’s SK series provide 1 micron runout accuracy as well as three times better runout repeatability and double the gripping force of a comparable ER collet chuck.
BVC Interface, Additional Inch Sizes for Hydraulic Chuck Line
Big Kaiser’s HDC jet-through hydraulic chuck line is designed for high-precision 5-axis machining. It’ll fit practically any application in the automotive, aerospace, medical, and die and mold industries.
Collet Chucks Provide Flexibility Without Compromising Runout Accuracy
Available in a wide variety of toolholder lengths and diameters for optimal rigidity and clearance, Samchully Workholding’s SK series provide 1 micron runout accuracy as well as three times better runout repeatability and double the gripping force of a comparable ER collet chuck.
Quick-Change Nuts Cut Jaw Change Time By At Least 50%
Ideal for workholding applications that require durability and high strength, such as high-speed machining, Dillon’s Fast-Trac jaw nuts provide more productivity per square foot of manufacturing space. They convert standard chucks 6 inches to 24 inches in diameter into quick-change chucks.
